Another week has once again flown by! As a small business do you find it difficult to find the time to put into the areas you know will help you succeed?

Many of the people we work with struggle to prioritise development and actions that will support growth as they are busy with the day to day tasks that are needed to keep the lights on!

It's those marketing and project management skills along with holding yourself account against your objective which will move your business forward.

This is where we can help! Providing the skills, focus, framework and an extra helping hand to do this.

Do you struggle with ideas for social content or having the time to post regularly?

One of the services we provide for our clients is creating social media plans to maintain presence and engagement.

If there is just one piece of advice you take from us it should to make sure you ‘don’t be a busy fool’.

It can be very easy to get caught up on tasks that take up your time but don’t help you reach your goals. Always start by asking yourself the question what will it achieve? If it’s not helping achieve your goals stop doing it.

Getting a plan in place is the easy part.....having the time to do it is where it becomes more challenging.

One of the biggest reasons our clients need us is because they don't have the time to do it themselves as well as run the businesses they created.

We are here to offer that additional resource to deliver a plan to achieve your business goals.

We don’t just make recommendations, we will build your knowledge and skills.

Following the initial discovery and planning we can work with you to put the tools and framework in place enabling you to keep on track. Creating a way of working you are able to replicate.

- Overarching strategy document
- A pen portrait of your target audience and how to talk to them
- A full year campaign calendar
- A core copy document with your key messages and how to position yourself
- A set of creative assets than can be used across all communications

It is important to no only have a website, but it needs to result in a positive customer experience.

Having a good customer experience on your website is crucial because it directly impacts customer satisfaction, retention, and ultimately, your bottom line.

Nearly nine out of 10 online users won’t revisit a website if they have a negative experience on it. This shows the importance of providing a smooth and user-friendly website for users, as a bad experience could result in lost opportunities for engagement and repeat visits.

A positive experience fosters trust, encourages repeat visits, and enhances brand loyalty. Additionally, satisfied customers are more likely to recommend your business to others, amplifying your reach and potential for growth.

Having a website isn't just an option anymore, it's a necessity!

It allows you to promote your product, build credibility, distinguish yourself, and...compete.

If you're not on the internet these days, you're not being competitive, and you will miss out on opportunities, even from loyal customers. If your customers can't find you, they will find someone else.

Get in touch if you need help developing a new or existing website. It cost nothing to have an initial conversation to point you in the right direction.

We know we have been quiet over the the last weeks. However, for a very good reason!

We have been busy working away to finalise the website content from one of our clients . To further support this we are creating supporting communications and a full social media plan to help them elevate their presence.

It's an absolute pleasure to work with such a fantastic business and we can't wait to share more over the coming weeks.

If you need help creating or further developing your website we are here to help. It cost nothing to have an initial conversation with us to help you get started.
